[閒聊] BP San Francisco Giants Top 11 Prosp …
System In 20 Words Or Less: Brandon Belt's explosion saves the system from
the ignominy of being without a five-star prospect, who already earned a
mulligan with the graduations of Posey and Bumgarner.
Five-Star Prospects
1. Brandon Belt, 1B
Four-Star Prospects
2. Zack Wheeler, RHP
Three-Star Prospects
3. Gary Brown, CF
4. Charlie Culberson, 2B
5. Ehire Adrianza, SS
6. Thomas Neal, OF
7. Francisco Peguero, OF
8. Tommy Joseph, C/1B
Two-Star Prospects
9. Jarrett Parker, OF
10.Chuck Jones, OF
11. Mike Kickham, RHP
Nine More:
12. Brandon Crawford, SS: He's a good defensive shortstop with a little bit
of pop, but will he hit?
13. Eric Surkamp, LHP: A finesse lefty, he will need to prove that he can get
upper-level hitters out without cracking 90 mph on his fastball.
14. Heath Hembree, RHP: A fifth-round pick last June picked for his big-time
velocity, Hembree is far from harnessing it.
15. Jose Casilla, RHP: This Dominican reliever gets good velocity and sink on
his offerings, but he doesn't have closer-grade stuff.
16. Rafael Rodriguez, OF: His tools are still incredible, but his transition
to baseball player has been slow.
17. Michael Main, RHP: A former Rangers first-round pick, he just doesn't
have the stuff he had in his teenage years.
18. Chris Dominguez, 3B: A difficult player to figure out, in that he
possesses both an 80 power and an 80 arm, but not much else.
19. Conor Gillaspie, 3B: A 2008 supplemental pick, Gillaspie has hitting
ability but not enough secondary skills for a starter at the position.
20. Hector Sanchez, C: He's an intriguing catcher with gap power and a plus
arm.
1. Brandon Belt, 1B
DOB: 4/20/88
Height/Weight: 6-5/195
Bats/Throws: L/L
Drafted/Signed: Fifth round, 2009, University of Texas
2010 Stats: .383/.492/.628 at High-A (77 G); .337/.413/.623 at Double-A (46
G); .229/.393/.563 at Triple-A (13 G)
Best/Worst Tool: Hit/run
Year in Review: An unheralded pick at the time, Belt was the biggest breakout
in the entire minor leagues in 2010, with scouts being universal in their
belief that it was the real deal.
The Good: Belt has plus-plus pure hitting ability, showing no real weaknesses
against lefties or righties, any pitch type, or thrown in any location. His
hands are tremendous, and he's equally adept at going with pitches or turning
on them with plenty of bat speed. The bat plays even better due to
outstanding plate discipline and pitch recognition. He's a very good
defensive first baseman, and runs well enough to play in the outfield, where
he held is own in some late-season looks.
The Bad: Belt doesn't have traditional power for a first baseman, and
scouting projections for him vary from 15 to 25 home runs annually. He had
some struggles in Triple-A against a steady diet of breaking balls, and might
still need to make some adjustments at the highest level.
Ephemera: He was a 46th-round pick in the 2005 draft by the Astros out of
Hudson High School in Lufkin, Texas, a school with no football program.
That's right, a Texas high school with no football.
Perfect World Projection: Belt's sweet lefty swing drew multiple optimistic
comparisons to Will Clark.
Fantasy Impact: He could produce in every category, even chipping in with a
handful of stolen bases.
Path to the Big Leagues: Belt will get a long look this spring, as the
re-signing of Aubrey Huff does not block him, since one of the two could move
to left field once Belt's bat is deemed ready.
ETA: 2011
